Jamaican Prime Minister Bruce Golding, in a letter to the Commission of Enquiry investigating the Manatt, Phelps and Phillips extradition scandal, maintained that the Government did not hire the Manatt firm to lobby the White House on behalf of Christopher Coke. The Jamaica Labour Party has offered a waiver for a representative of the firm to testify, but Manatt contends that the Government, not the party, was its client.
